Namespace: DevExpress.XtraSplashScreen

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

C#

public static void ShowImage(
    Image image,
    bool useFadeIn,
    bool useFadeOut,
    SplashFormStartPosition startPos,
    Point location
)

VB.NET

Public Shared Sub ShowImage(
    image As Image,
    useFadeIn As Boolean,
    useFadeOut As Boolean,
    startPos As SplashFormStartPosition,
    location As Point
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
image	Image	An Image to be displayed as a splash form.
useFadeIn	Boolean	true to use the fade-in effect when opening the form; otherwise, false.
useFadeOut	Boolean	true to use the fade-out effect when closing the form; otherwise, false.
startPos	SplashFormStartPosition	The splash form’s arrangement.
location	Point	Coordinates at which the splash form is shown (if the startPos parameter is set to Manual).

Remarks

The startPos parameter, if set to Manual, allows you to manually position the image using the loc parameter coordinates. Otherwise, the loc parameter is ignored and the image is centered against a main form.

Additionally, you can specify whether the fade animation is played as the image is shown/hidden via the useFadeIn and useFadeOut parameters.

See the Splash Image topic for examples.
